A presente investigação visa o desenvolvimento e validação de um modelo de Cultura
Organizacional de Elevada Performance e compreender a sua relação com o Work Engagement e
com o Compromisso Organizacional Afetivo. Para esse efeito hipotetizou-se que a Cultura
Organizacional de Elevada Performance exerce um efeito positivo no Work Engagement e no
Compromisso Organizacional Afetivo dos colaboradores. Colaboraram neste estudo 217
participantes pertencentes a empresas consideradas como possuindo uma elevada performance.
Os resultados obtidos revelam que a escala construída obteve boas qualidades métricas sendo que
este modelo é constituído por cinco dimensões: (1) Orientação para os Valores e Crenças, (2)
Orientação para a Comunicação, (3) Orientação para a Liderança, (4) Orientação para a Inovação
e Melhoria Contínua, e (5) Orientação para os Resultados e para o Cliente. Ficou também
demonstrado que três das dimensões da Cultura Organizacional de Elevada Performance têm
uma relação positiva e significativa com o Work Engagement e com o Compromisso
Organizacional Afetivo, nomeadamente a Orientação para os Valores e Crenças, Orientação para
a Inovação e Melhoria Contínua e a Orientação para os Resultados e para o Cliente.
